Kinda off topic, but one of the things I like most about my present job is that not one but two of the students who drop in regularly are young adult female hijab-wearing Muslim refugees from Afghanistan, both studying anthropology and gender studies, and both have spent their first semesters at uni getting their heads around the concept that gender roles are social constructs. As well as my core duty of making sure they understand the assignment instructions (some of them were quite tricky) I was quite happy to make sure they understood this bit of theory.
I noticed recently one of them had a few wisps of hair escaping from under her hijab. It might have been an accident in the late-semester chaos ... but it might not.
